Trepang2 Reviews
It doesn’t quite reach the highs of F.E.A.R., but the gunplay and fetishized gore manage to outclass the violence that Alma was capable of. Don’t expect to get emotionally invested or scared much. Trepang2‘s effort at horror feels more obligatory than anything else. At the very least, expect to have a fun time dancing in the blood.
It's stealthy, it's gruesome, it's tactical and it's gung-ho all in one fell swoop! Trepang² has the aesthetics of Crysis, the mechanics of 00s shooters and the gory story of B-movie horror-style games with all the blood-soaked trimmings. It feels retro in its action and it has a definite "FPS-version-of-House-Of-The-Dead" vibe to it with its bosses and progressively damaged and bullet-riddled scenery.
Trepang2 is a very fun and surprisingly accomplished FPS that thrives on its physical and fast-paced action combat. Players who don't mind the simpler aesthetics will find a game that has a certain catharsis that up until now was pretty much only scratched by the original F.E.A.R.. It is more than worth a look and comes recommended on PlayStation 5.
If you want pure action with spectacular shootouts, then Trepang2 is here for you. Although don't expect too much. You get adrenaline and intense action with decent numbers of enemies and poor story.

Trepang2 is a solid first-person shooter designed to satisfy all your action needs, offering countless explosions, millions of bullets, and the best Bullet-time experience since F.E.A.R.

I really appreciate Trepang2 as a debut for Trepang Studio. But next time it would be great to see something beyond good combat gameplay.

Trepang2 is an absolutely brilliant experience. Combat is insanely fun and satisfying, and the story is entertaining. The price tag may be a little high as the content is thin, but the fantastic gameplay loop makes it worth the time and the money.
Trepang2's tribute to F.E.A.R. is heartfelt but not fully realized. Despite good intentions and similarities, it lacks the AI brilliance that made Monolith Productions' title timeless. The protagonist's resemblance to Crysis isn't fully successful, with effective bullet time but nearly useless invisibility. However, once past initial uncertainties, Subject 106's adventure is a fast-paced, challenging, and fun shooter. While not on par with F.E.A.R., it's still enjoyable.

Trepang2 manages to be at once as impressive as it is disappointing. As a debut project made by an extremely small team, it astounds by the care taken in the shooting and core gameplay stages, which are as exhilarating as they are spectacular. On the other hand, the Trepang Studios production pales all the limitations of a debut that wants to measure itself against a complex genre, stumbling especially in the importance of level design in the ludic economy. All issues aside, Trepang2 is a triumph of over-the-top action that should be taken for what it is: a highly enjoyable pastime.

Trepang2 could have been a gem in the FPS genre, as it has an enviable combat mechanic, but the rest of the structure is mediocre. However, the foundations it lays are solid, so a potential sequel is capable of being a milestone for the genre, as was the case with its inspirator.
Trepang2 is a fun and entertaining first-person shooter that unfortunately flew a bit under the radar.

Even among the never-ending mountain of shooters available these days, Trepang2 stands out by being a loud and mysterious endeavor that doubly rewards those committed to learning its ways. It’s an adrenaline-fueled roller coaster that is a ton of fun to play.
Trepang2 is a shooter that has taken nice things from Crysis but especially F.E.A.R.
"Despite its peaks of intensity, Trepang2 is more predictable and less focused than it should be."

with some of the most satisfying shooting on the market and a surprising amount of customization and cheat codes, Trepang2 is still worth a shot, whether you’re a fan of the franchise it’s inspired by or just a fan of exciting first-person shooters.
Trepang2 may not have the star power, seasonal content, expansion passes, or eSport following that other shooters have, but what it does have is a lean, thrilling shooter that is free from bloat and easy on the wallet.
Trepang2 offers a thrilling, action-packed experience that lives up to its promise of making you the ultimate badass. With its intriguing story, superhuman abilities, and brutal combat, it keeps players engaged from start to finish. If you have a penchant for over-the-top action and are not squeamish about gore, Trepang2 is a must-play title.
Trepang2 offers a short but very intense and recommendable experience.

Trepang2 will most likely be the surprise of 2023 for many gamers. The story is mediocre, and the graphics will probably not impress many spoiled gamers. But it's not for nothing that they say we shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Especially if it's an indie title with a very friendly price tag. The miniature team of Canadian developers from Trepang Studios has put all their cards on gameplay and created an excellent frenetic FPS with horror elements that are great to play and won't let you rest. Or at least not your heart, because you'll be scared if you don't shoot.
